Build custom UI extensions in Workfront Fusion
You can now extend the Workfront Fusion interface with your own custom UI, using Adobe App Builder and the Adobe UI Extensibility SDK.
A custom UI extension is a small web app that you build and publish to Adobe. Once published, it appears as a button in Fusion’s navigation. When a user clicks it, your custom screen loads directly inside Fusion and automatically receives context about the signed-in user, organization, and team.
With custom UI extensions, you can:
- Add your own tools, dashboards, or screens directly inside the Fusion interface, without modifying Fusion itself.
- Read live context from Fusion, such as the signed-in user, organization, and team, and react automatically when the user switches organizations or teams.
- Call Workfront and Fusion APIs from your extension through a secure, same-origin proxy, avoiding browser CORS restrictions.
- Test your extension privately with a Stage build before publishing it for your whole organization.
Custom UI extensions require an Adobe ID with access to an Adobe organization, and Developer access to Adobe App Builder.

Select which fields to map in Workfront Planning record modules
To create a smaller, more efficient payload when working with records in Workfront Planning, the Create a record, Search records, and Update a record modules in the Workfront Planning V2 connector now let you select which fields you want to provide values for or search on, instead of sending every available field.
Each of these modules has a corresponding Legacy version that does not include this field selection option. We recommend switching to the new versions to reduce the size of your module’s payload.
For more information, see Adobe Workfront Planning modules.
New Adobe Workfront MCP connector
You can now connect Workfront Fusion directly to Adobe Workfront’s own Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, using the new Adobe Workfront MCP connector.
Unlike a typical connector, where each module performs one fixed action, this connector has a single “Process a user prompt” module. You give it an open-ended, plain-English instruction, and an AI model decides which Workfront operations are needed to fulfill it. For example, you could enter the prompt “Find all my active projects that are behind schedule and summarize their status,” instead of chaining together several Get and Filter modules.
For more information, see Adobe Workfront MCP modules.
Connect to Azure DevOps and SharePoint using a service principal
You can now create a connection to Azure DevOps or Microsoft SharePoint Online that uses a service principal (an Application API connection) instead of a personal account. This is useful when you want the connection to run as an application or service identity rather than a specific person, so the integration doesn’t break if that person leaves the company or changes their password.
For Azure DevOps, this connection type is available for all Azure DevOps modules. For SharePoint, it is available only for the Make an API Call module.
